Robot’s Inner Speech Effects on Human Trust and Anthropomorphism
2023
AbstractInner Speech is an essential but also elusive human psychological process that refers to an everyday covert internal conversation with oneself. We argued that programming a robot with an overt self-talk system that simulates human inner speech could enhance both human trust and users’ perception of robot’s anthropomorphism, animacy, likeability, intelligence and safety. For this reason, we planned a pre-test/post-test control group design. Participants were divided in two different groups, one experimental group and one control group. Participants in the experimental group interacted with the robot Pepper equipped with an over inner speech system whereas participants in the control …
Individual Differences in Self-Talk Frequency: Social Isolation and Cognitive Disruption
2019
Despite the popularity of research on intrapersonal communication across many disciplines, there has been little attention devoted to the factors that might account for individual differences in talking to oneself. In this paper, I explore two possible explanations for who people might differ in the frequency of their self-talk. According to the “social isolation” hypothesis, spending more time alone or having socially-isolating experiences will be associated with increased self-talk. According to the “cognitive disruption” hypothesis, having self-related experiences that are cognitively disruptive will be associated with increased self-talk frequency. Several studies using the Self-Talk Sc…
Exploring the relationships between flow, mindfulness, & self-talk : a correlational study
2013
Flow (peak performance) and mindfulness (nonjudgemental present-moment awareness) appear to be conceptually closely related to one another (e.g., Gardner & Moore, 2004). Theoretically, self-talk can be reasoned to play a key role in influencing the afore mentioned constructs. The interconnectivity of these three key variables of interest is illustrated and explained in a proposed overarching theoretical framework. Therefore, the main purpose of the current correlational study was to explore the relationships between flow, mindfulness, and self-talk, at the dispositional level. 212 international participants with experience in competitive sports completed an on-line questionnaire comprising …
Music Performance Anxiety : Use of Coping Strategies by Tertiary Flute Players
2013
This article presents part of a master´s degree research, which focused on investigating causes, symptoms, and strategies used by tertiary flute players to cope with music performance anxiety in the performance of an unaccompanied flute work in recital of evaluative character. However, it will present only the results on strategies of twelve flute students from three music colleges in Brazil to cope with music performance anxiety. Seven of participants were male, and five were female. The procedures of collection and analyses of data occurred as in the study by Siw Nielsen (1999), that is, through the behavioral observation of the participants in the recital, and verbal reports by semi-stru…
Pašrunas biežuma un satura saistība ar pašefektivitāti universitātes studentiem
2020
Pētījuma mērķis ir noskaidrot pašrunas biežuma un satura saistību ar pašefektivitāti universitātes studentiem. Lai to sasniegtu, tika veikts ārvalstu zinātnisko avotu teorētiskais apskats, sniedzot pašrunas definīciju, apskatot pētījumus par pašrunu un pašrunas mērīšanas instrumentus. Detalizētāk tika apskatītas Hardija (Hardy, 2006) un Brintapa (Brinthaupts et al., 2009) pašrunas teorijas, kā arī teorija par pašrunas saistību ar vispārējo pašefektivitāti, precizāk, ar verbālo pārliecināšanu. Tika veikta divu aptauju – Pašrunas biežuma aptaujas (Self-Talk Scale (STS), Brinthaupt et al., 2009) un Ticības pašrunā aptaujas (Belief in Self-talk, Araki et al, 2006) – adaptācijas, tālāk tās izman…
The effects of instructional self-talk on quiet eye duration and golf putting performance
2017
Yonatan Sarig, 2017. The Effects of Instructional Self-Talk on Quiet Eye Duration and Performance. Faculty of Sports and Health Science. University of Jyväskylä. Master’s thesis, 63p. While the literature on the effects of instructional self-talk is comprehensive, a somewhat under-investigated subject is the underlying mechanisms of instructional self-talk. As of late, the trend has been shifted towards researching what are the motivational and attentional constructs at the base of self-talk. Potentially, one such attentional construct is the quiet eye; the final gaze fixation on a target before the execution of task-oriented movement. Since the duration of the quiet eye is found to be asso…
